[reCamera] How to build a system with preinstalled packages or add a package manually to a working system

[s-nazim]

Is there any instruction on how to do this?

I found that the system has opkg package manager, but it doesn't work, any chance to install without success, event opkg list print is empty

I found that the system is using Buildroot, the only way that I found is using a
make menuconfig but the issue that make is isn't installed )))

Sorry, Buildroot does not fully support opkg. The current opkg is only used for packaging applications from https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/sscma-example-sg200x.

Thank you for your response

I have several questions

1. The mentioned instruction should be run on a host machine, correct ? The final .deb file should be uploaded to reCamera, correct (I mean step Sync sg2002_recamera_sd with sg2002_recamera_emmc #5) ?
2. Is any other instructions to build/install a package directly on reCamera device, by using Buildroot ?

Hi
Here’s a basic guide: SSCMA Example SG200X, if you want to compile your own application to run on the device. After running cpack, you will get a .deb package, which can be uploaded to the device using tools like SFTP for installation. However, please note that if there are third-party dependencies such as libmosquitto, you need to add those dependencies when compiling reCameraOS. This way, you can generate the SDK. The SDK download link is here.

I've already tested a sample apps, thanks, it works :) on the custom build of reCameraOS

However, please note that if there are third-party dependencies such as libmosquitto,

Do you have a guide how to add such dependency ?

Can I do this via make menuconfig ?

You can try the following manual: Compile the rootfs from buildroot.
